Amnah's Birth Story
Amnah has written up a beautiful birth story, one I was blessed to midwife. She was a pleasure to serve, always excited, reinvigorating my commitment to midwifery with her enthusiasm at each visit. It was a pleasure to experience her hospitality and friendship, as well as her delicious baking at each visit. Check out her blog as well, the recipes are a sure hit with your family! Here is my favorite line from her birth story:
Head. “Ring of fire”. Shoulders. Body. Bottom. Legs. Umbilical cord. I felt it all. And then I felt no pain. ”Which of the favors of your Lord do you then deny?” {Qur’an 55:13} My baby was here.
Isn't birth like that, simple, yet otherworldly all at once?! Welcome baby Z.
